Oh my elbows were totally flared out! I was trying to isolate my chest on a compound lift like an idiot. Lesson learned for sure. The supinated DB press is kind of an advanced technique (not saying you're not an advanced lifter) that takes time to feel occasionally. You really have to focus on the muscle, straighten your arms, squeeze your pecs and turn your pinkies in. Its worth playing with until you get it.
Lol. Well ok then!As for bolded: Totally am with stuff like this. I have problems "feeling" my upper body. I'm good with feeling and activating my glutes and low back and stuff, which is what a lot of people struggle with, so I'm just back-assed-wards.
lol
Well, yes, guess they could have been flared, but was during bench competition! I was 235lbs and did a 1 second pause 455 bench press, did a clean lift but as I was squeezing at the top locking out my arms, then is when I tore my right pec! World of pain, within 3 hours I was bruised front to back of my shoulder and stayed bruised for 7 months! 2 years, healed on its own, no surgery! Talking about being depressed, no gym or nothing!
